this is really wholesome Marcos, i enjoy every video made by you. please don't forget to rest and recover from all the hard work. You are awesome dude keep it up
I just want to take a step back and realize that there really aren’t any videos like this on the internet. A person telling us thier point of view from THE Olympic training facilities, awesome. Keep it up!
Your work ethic is incredibly commendable. The swim workouts alone made for a grueling day... let alone balancing that with a high-level, full time job. Best of luck on your quest to qualify for Paris. Maintain that long-term focus -- the sacrifices will pay off.
Your best video so far, the music, shots and the storytelling is so good, feels really personal and shares a lot about you. It’s also really inspiring to see the effort you put into achieving your goals, that final line was beautiful too, aspiring to be at least a bit better than yesterday 🙂. Thanks for the great video!
I gotta say that as someone trying to break into tech myself, this has really inspired me! Not only do you dedicate yourself to your career, but your enhanced dedication as an Olympic swimmer is really motivating. Thanks for being an awesome beacon of light on a particularly challenging day for me. This is pushing me to keep at my goals and never give up 💪🔥
I like the part where he talks! You are very inspirational man, an example of what consistency and discipline can achieve, thank you for the behind the scenes look, and we're all gonna be rooting for you come Spanish Olympic trials
Thanks for sharing all your hard work-both in the pool and out of the pool. The determination and guts to train at this high of a level and maintain a full time job are inspiring. And your honesty about feeling about quitting is something not everyone would admit to. We're with you!
It's not all sun and rainbows but it's hard to show that sometimes publicly. Lots of tough moments but it's all worth it! Thanks for the support as always :)
Wow, so inspiring. I am a Software Engineer myself and watching you being consistent and hard working inspires me more & now I also wanna participate in Olympics.
PT here with the OPTC sports medicine team. The algorithm recommended me your video on my feed. Love the camerawork and the grind! A great capture of a day in the life. Subscribing ✊🏻
Hi Marcos! Terence from Singapore here! Really not easy for you to juggle both professional work and swimming! Thanks for sharing with us a glimpse of your life! It's really very tough but it's also so encouraging to be inspired by you! THANK YOU! Keep growing, keep glowing!!!
It's really motivating man that how you didn't waste a single hour and stay focused it's very inspiring. Just don't delete this video because it encourages a lot of people to do something meaningful in their lives. And best of luck for the Olympics
This made me tear up in many parts and it spoke to me and connected with me on what it takes to achieve excellence, especially the parts where you feel like quitting half the time, it resonated so much to me because I knew how that felt like. Thank you for putting this together. You've inspired me to take more action now.
Marco just came across your channel, but heck you are a hell of a good inspiration to come across. The dedication and strength you put into not only your school, workouts, but also dedication to create and share this journey with us. All the best to you.
Marcos your determination and motivation is truly inspiring all who follow your journey😊. Your videos not only showcase your talent but also your relentless drive to push yourself to new heights.🎉🎉 As you prepare for future competitions, I have no doubt that your unwavering commitment will continue to propel you forward. May each stroke be guided by your passion and each lap be a testament to your perseverance.🧣🥰 Wishing you the best of luck in all your endeavors, both in swimming and beyond. Keep shining bright!❤❤ 🇺🇲🇮🇳
I am an oldie Kiwi living in OZ I love how you manage everything, I have been a avid subscriber for a few years now, and enjoy how you seem to be calm and collective. Cheers
Know the feeling... a bit.. taking an IOC diploma in sports nutrition at the same time with a bachelor in acupuncture and working at the same time. Always something that needs to get done!
I feel you bro, same shit with fulltime job + pro level in sports but I am also solo in a different country. Keep fighting and after that it will pay out well for both of us. Good luck! +rep
Me encanta como redactas tus días siendo sincero sobre lo duro que es seguir el ritmo y mantener la motivación de seguir con lo que amas. Keep it up with the hard work!
i feel like the caption without talking really captures how tired you are in this stage of life. the piano music, snowy scene, warm lights, walking alone home looks like a korean movie to me. anyway, keep up the good work
Wow.. Its amazing how good your diet is. Definitely its the top factor on why US athletes outperform and excel globally. Not trying diminish your efforts, just actually admiring how efficient you guys are.
I pray for your life so that you achieve great things this year, I know you've been working so hard for your dreams and you'll be rewarded for it. God bless you🙏❤️
this schedule with work sounds absolutely terrible! I can not even imagine this setup! I was training to be a pro cyclist but I had a serious accident that prevented me from cycling again, and I was just doing school! this schedule is actually crazy props to you Marcos!
Thanks for sharing this! Just thinking now this could make a killer story for an MBA one day... 😂 Good luck on your journey sir I wish I could be like you!
What a hectic schedule on a day! But you've kept up with the ritual perfectly. I understand that we need to sacrifice our leisure time to achieve our multiple goals and hobbies altogether.
I just follow you. You are flexible in your schedule : ) as enjoy pressure. Inspired me back to swimming after working. Thanks your channel. I hope to see the Paris Olympics.
Wish I could’ve saw content like this 1 year and a half ago when I became deeply unmotivated and depressed and quit running (was on track for going D1) as well as my job, and stopped trying in school. Only recently have I began to get a grip. I graduate high school in 2 months. If only I could go back. Only now have I truly realized that there is beauty in the struggle. That’s what makes life.
me encantan tus videos Marco! sube mas de tus entrenamientos. Realmente volver al trabajo o ir al auniversidad despues del primer turno a la mañana es lo mas difícil. Despues de almorzar entre las 13-15hs me da un sueño pesado que hace complicado seguir la jornada. Te felicito por todo tu esfuerzo en intentar equilibrar todas tus pasiones. saludos desde Argentina
crazy how much energy athlethes have 😭😭 m usually knocked out for hours after a single swim session. forget lifting weights or having any life after that😂 m sure for people training for loteral olympics its the kind of endurance n stamina built up over time and with discipline. amazing work 🎉
Insane how you can still produce videos of this quality while training for literally the Olympics and having a full time job 🤯

Thank you! 87 days until Olympic trials...

My first time watching a video like this. Relaxing and engaging until the end, with some good cinematography as well!
Great video Marcos!! I really appreciate you taking the time to make this!
Great schedule Marcos! You're doing great and leveraging compounding as well!
Amazing video, Marcos! Thanks for sharing with us!

It makes me feel calm, but I also want to have a productive life. Very creative Marcos!
And you made this professional level video. You are rock star with 3 full-time jobs 🎉
transition at 8:00 was beautiful
Know the feeling... a bit.. taking an IOC diploma in sports nutrition at the same time with a bachelor in acupuncture and working at the same time. Always something that needs to get done!
Your angles and editing is AMAZING. I don’t know about others but I noticed. Keep up the good work and you will go far.
Oh my goodness, I didn't know guys like this existed, kudos to you! May your hard work bear multiples of fruits in your life!!!
I feel you bro, same shit with fulltime job + pro level in sports but I am also solo in a different country. Keep fighting and after that it will pay out well for both of us. Good luck! +rep

Already inspiring. Good luck!
good video! every time when I was tired, I'll watch your video to inspire myself, to get power and continue studying with energy
You are leading a life with no regrets. It is the ultimate wisdom.
Respect on how you are still able to I guess deliver good work and do all of that training. Both things are physically and emotionally draining.
Thanks for sharing your day..."Su Su", that is a Thai phrase for keep on fighting. Greeting from Thailand.
I love that - keep on fighting!
I love your hardwork on making this video, good luck on your training
thank you!!

I’m so proud of you :,) you are living the dream

Hahah it was pretty cool - appreciate it!
Its worth the wait! thanks 🤘
A really nice video! Good job for deciding to make it silent. It seems the calm music makes me more focused while watching it.
Found of your videos !! Keep going to achieve your goals it’s going to pay one day !!
Insane dedication. I'm 23 and strive to be half as dedicated as you in my life
Ánimo Marcos, ya queda menos! Seguro lo consigues! 🙌🏽💪🏽

Keep going Marcos! I love your videos and perspective. You got this!
Thank you!!!
What a hectic schedule on a day! But you've kept up with the ritual perfectly. I understand that we need to sacrifice our leisure time to achieve our multiple goals and hobbies altogether.
Exactly, sometimes you need to rearrange your days to prioritize your goals
Mucho éxito marcos, ojalá llegues a los olímpicos y aprovecha la oportunidad de entrenar con los mejores.
I just follow you. You are flexible in your schedule : ) as enjoy pressure. Inspired me back to swimming after working. Thanks your channel. I hope to see the Paris Olympics.

Good video bro 🎉
Best of luck brother, enjoy the journey it matters more than the results ;)!
